John Richard Piscitelli, Jr.

John Richard Piscitelli, Jr. 62, of Bensalem PA passed away peacefully at the side of his loving family on April 4, 2026.

A graduate of Archbishop Ryan High School and Pennco Tech, John had a career as a service manager for the electric power generation industry. He began his career as a truck mechanic. His skill, leadership, and dedication led him to advance his career in many ways.

He will be remembered for his knowledge, fairness, integrity, and his ability to roll up his sleeves and join the gang. Whatever the project, John strived for excellence in his capacity as a service manager.

Another point of excellence was gathering around the table for a home cooked meal, trying a new recipe, shooting pool, (Pool Shark) and just being there. He was full of warmth and his presence could instantly lift the mood in any room. He was sure to let people know that they were seen, appreciated, and important.

He is survived by his wife, Margaret (Toughill), children, Tara and William, brother, Michael Piscitelli, Sr. (Denise), sister, Paula Holzworth (David), and his cherished grandchildren, Richard Sullivan (Sully) Danforth and Penelope Danforth (Penny). He was the loving uncle of Michael (Alisa), Ashlyn (Anthony) and Jessica (Brenden), and many other nieces and nephews. John was predeceased by his parents, John R. Piscitelli, Sr. and Lorraine A. Piscitelli (Bonacci).
